Spain's highest mountain El teide in Tenerife with an altitude of 3,700 metres is a popular trekking destination for Spanish and international tourists alike. Many local people climb to the summit or the refuge just below it in summer to witness the spectacular sunrise over the caldera - which contains most volcanic geological formations to be found in the world.
